The murder of Ameiicua Neeley was
just us much a political assassination as
tli j murder of John M. Clayton. Ti e
democratic party of Arkansas is responsi
ble for both crimes.
"And yet we should be glad to get rid
of him," said the Forrest City (Ark.)
I'imes, in an article on Americus Neely,
a week ago. Well, they "got rid of him"
in the usual way. They (that is to sy,
the democrats of the ficinity) murdered
him. Globe Democrat.
A whiter, iu the "The Pitt burg Post"
iniists that the precedent we recently
quoted , showing that no man had ever
been returned to tho Presidency after
once leaving it. could not be applied to
Mr. Cleveland case, Iecause "no man
save Mr. Cleveland has been defeated
in the Electorcl College with a inajoritj
on the popular vote over the successful
candidate." "The Pittsburg Post" i.
niist.iken. This has happened before.
The case of the first defeat of Jackson i
precisely similar, but it is, nevertheless,
true that Jackson had a plurality in 1324
over John Quincy Adams of 44.S04, and
failed of election, both by the Electoral
Colleges and by the House, which chose
Adam. A strict paralled to Mr. Cleve
land's case, however, may be . found in
that of Mr. Tilden, who had a plurality
on the popular vote of 232,224. But Un
less said about Mr. Tilden and Mr. Cleve
land's popular majority the better. 11
there had been an honest elecction in th
South last year, Jlr. Cleveland would
hare been in a popular minority of seve
ral hundred thousand votes, and hi.
technical majority of 04,001 means noth
ing whatever.
Foil THE PROMOTION OF TRADE
The American Mail and Ex-pur!
Journal reports at length the statement
which Mr. F. G. Pkrra made to the mem
lers of the Spanish-Ameiican Commer
cial, which is described in its articles oi
incorporation as "an association for tin
promotion of trade with Mexico, Centra'
and Southern Atneric, the West Indie
aud the Philippine Islands." A few ol
the statistics furnished by Mr. Pieira arc
worthy of consideration. The Argentine
Republic exports goods to about tin
value of $02,000,000 yearly; of these ex
ports the United States takes a yery
large percentage. The imports of tht
Argentine Republic averase $93,000,000
yearly of which textile productions anr
clothes amount to $21,000,000; iroa and
its manufactures to $10,000,000; coal,
coke, etc., f4, 030,000; railway and tele
graphic materials, $3,000,000, and wool
and its manufactured products to about
$5,000,000. As the largest purchaser
from thj Argentine Republic we ought,
according to the "mutual reciprocity"
theory of free traders, to be the greatest
seller of goods, but as a malter of fact
we are the smallest, the distribution of
imports from various countries to the
Argentine Republic being in this wise:
K.nglund, 33 per cent.
. France, 17 per cent.
Germany. 9 per cent.
Belgium, 7.5 per cent.
United States, 7.4 per cent.
These figures knock the iree traders'
plea oi our lack of trade in the Southern
republics eing du to our "prohibitory
turiiF '.out of the ring. For the tariff of
Germany is well nigh as highly protect
ive as our owr., while that of England is
higher upon the chief exports of the Ar
gentine Republic coffee, cocoa and
rubWr, to wit.- In fact we admit most
of the exports of the Southern republics
and of the West Indies and the Philip
pines duty free, while even free trade
England taxes most of them. And yet
ths freedom of importation does not
create a great trade between us and them.
What is lacking? What inducements do
Eugland, France aud Germany offer to
trade between their posts and these of
Spanish America which the United States
withholds? The answer is plain, subsi
dies to steamships. Germany. France
and England have regular lines of steam
ships plying to and from Spanish Ameri
can harbors. The United States has not.
They have such lines because they subsi
dize them. The United States lias no
such lines because it refuses subsidies.
That is the case in a nutshell. And it is
a shell that shuts out at least a hundred
millions of dollars worth of trade from
our coast every year.

IMPORTANT TO THE CITIZENS.
A Traveling Man Creates Creat Ex
citementtn the Empire House-
Independence, Iowa, Oct. 14, 1883.
Rheumatic Symp Co,, Jackson, Midi:
Gents: Your Mr. Brooks came here
tonight and registered as agent for Hib
bard's Rheumatic Syrup, and as ho did
so it awakened in ma an interest neyer
lefore realized in a guest at my house.
You will not wonder at it when I tell
you the story. For years I have been
greatly afflicted with inflammatory rheu
tnatism, the pain and soreness of the
joints at time3 hoino almost unbearable;
could move about only with the aid of
crutches. In'addition to this tay stomach
became badly diseased, and neuralgia set
in, which threatened to end my day. A
traveling man stopping with me gave
quifc a history of your Syrup, and the
peculiarities of its combination, which
induced me" to try it. I hav taken six
bottles and bo act in my life affords me
greater satisfaction tLav ijj. writing you
I nra a well man.
It will be a pleasure for me to answer
any communications, for I believe it to
be the best remedy ever formulated.

What a Mostem Delleven.
Every Moslem believe3 devoutly in ft
personal God, in an overruling Provi
dence, in the mission und miracles of
Christ, whom they designate ns the Mes
siah, in tho duty of prayeT, and the im
mortality of tho Boul, in a future state of
rewards and punishments, and in tho in
spiration of the Bible An educated
Moslem, if asked why he dofs not be
come a Christian, may not improbably
reply that, according to his own inter
pretation cf the New Testament, ho is
ono already. Thus, in a letter recently
received from one of my friends, he
styles himself "a Moslem and a Chris
tian at the samo time.
Though a most pious and sincere Mo
hammedan, he claims to be one of those
"who profess and call themselves Chris
tians," for whom we pray every Sunday
that they may be led into the way of
truth. They hold that Islam was the lat
est revelation, perfecting tho Christian
revelation, just as Christianity supple
mented the revelation given to the Jews.
Mohammed may be considered as a re
former of Christianity; like Luther ho
denounced certain superstitions that had
grown up.
The Koran says that God gave the
Gospel to Jesus to proclaim, and that He
put kindness and compassion into the
hearts pf those that followed Him; but
"as for the pionastic life, they invented
it themselves." "In tho tiue pf Mq.
hammed," says one of my friends,
"Christianity had become corrupt, as
many of your own writers admit, and it
was thes corruptions that it was Mo
hammed's mission to reform. Wo fpject
the corruptions of Christianity. But we
claim to have a final revelation, predicted
by your ovn. prophets, just as the com
ing of the Messiah was' fojeipid to the
Jews, who nevertheless blindly rejecled
him as you reject Mohammed." Leaves
from an Egyptian Note Book.
The reeling Was Tlier.
In attendance at one of the IndianapOr
lis ward schools is a little colored girl 9
years old. She is miserable, indeed, for
at home she is ill treated and tho shoes
she wears, and often the clothes, are sup
plied by the teachers or some of her
classmates. There is a tender poetic vein
in her make up and it found vent in a
composition. The teacher took a little
pansy plant to school one day and told
the pupils pf tho flqwer. Two days
after sho asked them to write a poem pf
it and gave them the privilege of having
the pansy talk and tell the story, and
this is what the little colored girl wrote,
tho word pansy in the copy being the
only one dig&ifiad with a capital:
"I am only a Pansy. My hoi is in a
little brown house. I sleep in my Utile
brown house all winter, and I am now
going to ppen my eyes and look about.
'Give me some rani, fjt J Tant to loo.1:
out of my window and see what is going
on,' I asked, so the sky gave me some
water and I began to climb to the win
dow, at last I got up there and open my
eyes, oh what a wonderful world I seen
when birds sang songs to me, and grass
hoppers kjssed me, and dance with me,
and creakets smiietl at me. and I had a
pretty green dres3. there was trees hat
grow over me and the wind faned me.
the sun oinjled at mc, and little children
smelled me one bright morning mo and
tho grasshoppers had a party Uo ycw.;

up and tore me up and I died and th.it
was the last of Pansy." Indiana poiia

A Battlefield Trust.
We are in danger of something worse
than the Libby prison speculation. It is
now proposed by a speculative northerner
to purchase all tho battlefields of the late
war, fence them in, turn them into
parks, and show them to visitors at
twenty-five ceptg a. head.
It will strike those who are acquainted
with the situation that the great Ameri
can showman will have a big job on
hand when he comes to the cluster or
bouquet of battlefields around Atlanta.
Our old red hul3 have good cause to be
redder tuan any otner lulls that ever
trembled through the thunder storm of
war.
Nowhere on American soil can there
bo found a spot that was ever so pounded
and mangled and harried and Scorched as
thLi same Gate City of ours. All over the
world there are men now living whose
proudest boast is to say that they went
through our forty days' baptism. of fire
or were in one of the many battles
fought under our city's walls.
We are not yet ready to 6ell our
blood stained fields of glory to the glib
strangers whose only interest in them is
to coin money put pf them. If we can
do nothing better, let us levsl ths grim for;
tresses and tho frowning ramparts, and
fill up tho silent trenches once so full of
heroic life. Let us cover these scars of
war with the blooming industries of
peace! Atlanta Constitution.
A Model Dog Story.
A remarkable case of animal intelli
gence and fidelity has developed in this
city. Every one knows the late D.
Watson's little dog Zolla, that used to
follow him everywhere and often rid?
beside lu'ni in his buggy 6eat. He would
come every morning to 'his 'poster 'j
office, and if he did not find him there
would run over to the livery stable to see
if the doctor's buggy was gone, and if it
was he would follow the track until he
had found him. When his master was
in the coffin little Jtolla was held up so
he could see his face, and showed eigns
of intense grief. '" ' ' -
Ho was at the funeral at Woodbine1
cemetery and wna the last one to linger
at t lie new made grave. Since that time
he has visited the grave night and morn- I
ing and is seen sitting upon it keeping
witlch, as though he expected his kind
friend and master. He often wandered
alone on the streets at night, and a gen
tleman " whc3 profile and beard some
what resemble Dr. "Watson's h&3 tild us
that little Zolla has often walked in ffdrit
of him. and gazed into his face and even
followed Iiim home and sat for hours in
front pf his door waiting for him to come
out that he might get one more look at
this face so much like the one treasured
in Lis memory. Jefferson (UaJ Hfrrald.
